My memory of the NDL video collection is that the database is not  
online. You have to go in and check their holdings. This box set was  
produced after the copyright laws changed and started requiring the  
submission of copies. Have you actually tried visiting? I'm curious  
about this. When I asked about the library about the submission  
process, they said they were receiving pretty much everything outside  
of the pink films.
